But, on the eve of her wedding, she tries to elope with her boyfriend, Guddu ( Ali Fazal), a musician. Happy ( Diana Penty) is supposed to marry Bagga ( Jimmy Shergill), a small-time corporator. The film marks Rai's third collaboration with Eros International after Raanjhanaa (2013) and Tanu Weds Manu Returns (2015). The film features Diana Penty, Abhay Deol, Jimmy Shergill, Ali Fazal and Momal Sheikh in the lead roles. So I did my homework very serious.Happy Bhag Jayegi (English: Happy Will Run Away) is a 2016 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Mudassar Aziz and produced by Anand L. Then somebody was helping me with the language and the diction. I spent a few days in Amritsar, met local girls, observed their mannerism, the way they spoke. Because I knew that I would need it to make me more confident about playing a role, especially something so different. I had to work hard on it and gave more importance to prep up for the role. Was it difficult to play a typical Punjabi girl in Happy Bhag Jayegi? If you have problem then its your problem. I am not shy and reserved as I used to be.
I’ll wait, I’ll do something else in the mean time.īut your debut in Cocktail was well-appreciated, didn’t that drive you to do more films?īut whatever I did get after that was not exactly something I wanted to do on personal level.
After Cocktail I was just thinking in a way that okay if something else comes up that I really want to do, I will do it. Because first of all acting was something that just happened. I think that time I didn’t pressure myself on acting.
I was doing my endorsements, shows, modelling. I didn’t disappear, I was very much here. After missing on the big screen for four years, model-turned actress Diana Penty is back with HBJ.
